Improving My Nuc Design

I have changed from using my four-frame nuc as shown in my earlier video to a six-frame nuc with stackable boxes to expand the hive.  I use 1 x 12 stock boards for the top and bottom, and 1 x 8's for the sides.  If anyone wants to see how this looks I will post some photos.  The dimensions of the pieces are listed below:

6-Frame NUC (MEDIUM DEPTH)
Bottom (1 X 12) 21 3/4
Top (1 X 12) 22 1/2
Sides 19 1/4
Ends 11 1/4
Plywood Inserts 9 3/4 X 6 1/2

6-Frame NUC STACKING BOX(MEDIUM DEPTH)
Sides 19 1/4
Ends 11 1/4
Plywood Inserts 9 3/4 X 6 1/2
